"Rilo Kiley is part emo, yeah Slowdive is mainly shoe gaze and death cab for cutie is indie ok so you got 2 on me but I have 3 on her. She's worse."
slowdive IS shoegaze. they're one of the most prominent bands in the genre.
although i can kind of get why you'd think rilo kiley is emo, at least judging by their song 'emotional', most of their work is indie rock with a heavy country influence (just listen to 'take offs and landings' and you'll see what i'm talking about).
death cab has some material that leans a bit towards emo as well, but they're primarily indie rock, possibly with a little bit of goth influence somewhere in there (the cure specifically, as i remember him mentioning on multiple occasions that they were a big influence on him as a musician)
but annnnnywho, back on topic:
i actually haven't really listened to nirvana all that much - would you mind recommending me a few of their songs to try listening to?
